Thought I'd change the main page. It was time for a face lift.
We woke up to bitter cold and snow. It has been foggy all day. I like it, except, I had to go to the pharmacy, Petco and grocery store. Roads were pretty bad, but, I took my time and made it home safe.
I like to get out like that and challenge myself. Driving slow, watching for the other guy, trying not to skid, I love it. I know, sounds crazy and not so normal, but, I never claimed to be normal.
On the Alzheimer's side, things are just about the same. There has been lots of strange behavior and delusions but, other than that, it's OK.
For some reason known only to husband, on his way to the bathroom, he will open the closet door then proceed to the bathroom. Lately, when coming into the living room, he will forget to get his walker. When I remind him to get it, he gets really confused and starts to spin while holding onto my bed. He also starts to move the bedroom door back and forth. It may take him a good 15 minutes before he calms down and gets his walker.
As I was putting him to bed Saturday night he said, "Wasn't that a good idea I had?" Now, me being the actress that I am said, "which one?" He smiled and said, "the one where I took popsicle sticks and put them in wax and made new popsicles, remember?" "Oh, yes, I do remember, good idea."
Later, I got a popsicle out, looked at it and had to chuckle. And then, I had to laugh out loud. And, as I ate it, I said to no one, "Funny, doesn't taste like wax."
Leave it to husband to make me laugh.
You have such a positive attitude, you're such an inspiration.
